Crean cooled on him.

He can use that now when he uses a recruit right? Being in the Big Televen and all?

Considering Holloway ended up choosing a Jesuit school with a small enrollment under a PG-driven coach rather then stay committed to IU is it out of the question to think Marquette under Tom Crean had a pretty good shot at landing him?

Indiana is also in imminent danger of officially losing its other top recruit, five-star small forward Devin Ebanks, who is planning on taking official visits to Memphis, Rutgers, Texas, and West Virginia. Indiana has all but dropped out of his consideration.

Indiana does still hold commitments from a pair of three-star recruits, center Tom Pritchard and shooting guard Matt Roth, but Crean has some serious decisions to make as next season approaches. With Armon Bassett and Jamarcus Ellis still off the roster, and other players reportedly struggling academically, it’s unclear how extensive the roster overhaul may be.


Music to my ears... ;)

Indiana just offered 2009 SF Roger Franklin, who was/is an MU target.  Didn't take TC long to start hitting on the MU recruits.  Franklin is from, you guessed right, TEXAS.

Buzz should be in play here, right?

Would be fun to see Crean/Buzz go head-to-head with Franklin and Wilson in the 2009 class.

I would hope so.  And we can only hope that either Buzz wins both, or they select a school other than MU or IU.  But, I hope Buzz gets them :)
